I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Economics of Bocconi University, an Affiliate of IGIER (Innocenzo Gasparini Institute for Economic Research), and a part-time Research Scientist at Google Research.

I work on market design, microeconomic theory, and computer science. My PhD thesis was recognized with an honorable mention at the 2023 ACM SIGecom Doctoral Dissertation Award.
